Tortoise in a Nutshell is a multi-award winning Edinburgh-based visual theatre charity dedicated to creating world-class visual theatre that ignites the imaginations of audiences around the globe.

Our vision is that anyone can access exemplary visual theatre, an artform motivated by positive social impact, which provides for the needs of all peoples.

Our work is driven by a visual language that allows us to create poetic and memorable theatre, that focuses on universal themes and human stories.

Tortoise in a Nutshell look to create accessible, engaging experiences for our communities. We continuously challenge ourselves and the way we think, ensuring we stay relevant and impactful for the people we work with and for.

We offer national and international touring productions and bespoke community engagement projects, alongside design and build commissions. We work as collaborators, project leaders and commission artists for partner organisations of all scales and sizes.

 We are currently based at the Heart of Newhaven Community.
